Red River Mutual staff along with BSI Altona and Prairie Insurance pedalled the Big Bike through the streets of Altona to raise $3,291 for Heart and Stroke. Organizers Audrey Froese and Joyce Hildebrandt were very pleased with the results and the partnership with our local brokers.

Red River Mutual together with several brokers spent Sep 20-24 working on the build site with Habitat for Humanity.

 One of our corporate goals is to exemplify the “Modern Mutual”…part of that goal is to become more active in the communities we serve.

Thank you to the following brokers for getting involved…Horizon Insurance, PMC Insurance, BSI Insurance, Essex Insurance, King Insurance, Lakeview Insurance, Reider Insurance, and One Insurance.
